THE MAROON *\ ffTimeXV LOYOLA UNIVERSITY, NEW ORLEANS, LA., SEPTEMBER 17, 1937 No. 1 NEW ENROLLMENT MARK ESTABLISHED Registration of All Colleges Increased As Classes Begin Arts and Sciences College Total Reaches 523; Dental, Law Colleges Also Show Gain MUSIC SCHOOL OFFERS FIRST NIGHT CLASSES Night School Enrollment In All Colleges To Take Place Next Week; Classes Begin October 4 With registration computations still incomplete, and classes begun, the largest enrollment in the history of the university is expected for this session, it was announced this week by the Rev. P. A. Roy, S. J., dean of the university.Registration in the college of arts and sciences has already exceeded the total of last year by 30 students, despite the general drop in other universities throughout the country, Father Roy said. There is a total of 523 students registered in the day division of the college, as against 498 of last year. Approximately 167 students have registered in the school of dentistry, to date. Of this number, 40 are freshmen—a very satisfying number in view of the fact that entrance requirements have been raised by the American Council on Dental Education to embrace a two-year pre-dental course in place of the one-year course of former years. In the day division of the school of law, total registration, to date, is on a par with that of last year, with 16 freshmen enrolled. Approximately 27 students have registered in the night-school law courses which is also equal to last year's total. Enrollment in the college of pharmacy is as yet incomplete.

To The Student Body: Fellow students, the student council is desirous at this time, through the medium of The Maroon, to acquaint the upperclassmen and particularly the freshmen of the various schools and colleges of the university, with the policies and functions which will be encouraged and propagated this year by the duly elected student council representatives for the continued well being and hai i innious welfare of the stud' lit Df the university. It is the duty and the privilege of ea.ch student council representative, y virtue of the honor and trust beatowed upon him or her in the elections of last May, to work ingl.v in the interest of the univ rilty and of each and every itm nt. As president and spokesman of the student council, I j u- h to state at this time that each bei of the council realizes C is but a representative of, definite group of the students of the university. Each representativ kuI.merging his own per-, sonaiity and desires, will ever bear I in mind the particular needs of J his group and do all in his power to satisfy'such needs, thereby ing to gain the approval of the student body. C However, we wish to remind you students that your duties to the: university did not end merely with ; the casting of a ballot in the elec- j Name McCann Blue Key Head For 2nd Year Rodi, Pascal, Broussard, And Beach Also Named By Honor Frat John J. McCann, second year law student, has been elected to the presidency of the Loyola chapter of Blue Key, national service fraternity. McCann was also president last year. His reelection breaks a precedent of long standing, which holds that a man may be president only one term. The election was held during the summer, the fraternity announced. McCann is well known on the campus for his work in dramatics (Continued on page 6) Big Things Planned For Thespians Plays, Operetta, In Offing; First Production To Be In October The Thfespians, Loyola dramatic organization, is out this year to put on a carefully planned series of plays. The play for October has not as yet been selected, as a selection ordered by the genial director, "Doc" Bonomo, has not as yet arrived. For December "Doc" has scheduled a play which had been slated for an appearance on the boards last year, but which, because of a rush of extra-curricular activities at that particular time, was relegated to the shelf. The play, "Crooks for a Month," is a comedy in three acts. Shortly after the semester exams in February, the group will assist in the presentation of an operetta, "Hulda of Holland," which Dr. Bonomo. and Father Janssen cooperated in presenting at the university some years ago. For the wind-up of the year, early in May, the Thespians will present "After Wimpole Street," a sequel, in a way, to the famous "Barretts". Members of the Thespians and of the Auxiliary are advised that there is a meeting of both organizations on Tuesday, September 21, at 8 p.m. in Marquette auditorium. Moderator Of Debate Club Is Announced Rev. T. F. Maher, S. J., Succeeds Father St. Paul In Post This Session The Rev. Thomas F.

The first meeting of the society will be held Wednesday, Sept. 22, at 8 p. m., in Marquette auditorium, according to Harold Ainsworth, president. At this meeting a new vicepresident will be elected to succeed James E. Brown, newly appointed editor-in-chief of the Maroon, who was forced to resign his position because of the student council ruling which states that the editor can not hold office in any campus organization. Plans for the coming year will be discussed, particularly those pertaining to the admission of freshman candidates for membership, Ainsworth said. With all of last year's varsity debaters returning and many promising candidates coming up from the freshman squad, competition is expected to be keen for places on the squad. Those varsity debaters returning are: John Mc- Cann, Harold Ainsworth, Bob Lacey, Robert F. Morrow and James E. Brown. ARTS AND SCIENCES REGENT THE REV. F. L. JANSSEN, S.
